Summer Faves | I’m Loving It

I searched high and low, and came up with this fabulous list of 24 Summer Faves for today’s I’m Loving It!

Hey friends!  We still have two more Fridays to get through before school is officially out on June 11, ugh!  And I have to work until at least June 21, maybe a few days after that.  It’s a short summer for me this year as a result of some bad weather over the winter and the state wide teacher strike that happened.  Needless to say though, I am looking forward to summer break, no matter how long or short, and I found some awesome Summer Faves to share with you today!

OH, BTW, my son is graduating from high school tomorrow morning, and my daughter is moving to Miami on Monday, so it’s a very stressful and bittersweet time right now, so pray for me that I will get through it all!  I’m sure many of you know by heart the emotions I have been feeling lately.

Before I get overly sappy, let’s move on to today’s post.  It’s finally starting to feel like summer here in WV, and all I wanna do is spend a day floating around in a body of water with a cold drink and a good book.  Are you feeling me?  I have all the summer feels, and that is not good for productivity for me!

All of the new Summer arrivals have me pining away for Summer to officially begin.  Here are 24 things that have me feeling summer time vibes, I hope you enjoy them!

1 //  Woven Cotton Chair Hammock  I can just see two of these hanging from beams on my lower back deck.  Not only would I enjoy whiling away an afternoon in one of these, but I think it would be fun for the whole family, until they start fighting over them, that is!  and this particular one is for sale for less than $30!  and no, I didn’t leave a zero off the end of that!

2 //  Metal Payton Barrell  These are metal storage bins from World Market, but I see great outdoor planters when I look at them.  Wouldn’t they look so cute filled with flowers?

3 //  Kickoff Wedge Sandals  I love these Marc Fisher sandals!  I’m partial to the light blue, but they also come in black, light pink, and nude.  The dainty ruffled edges and espradrille wedge give this sandal a posh vibe.

4 //  Tiered Gingham Midi Dress  This dress from J.Crew is the perfect summer dress!  It would look great with a pair of sandals and a structured bag.

5 // Bag of Tricks Clutch  Of course, I had to include my favorite color in my summer faves!  This clutch adds the perfect pop of red to any summer ensemble.

6 //  Gradient Tassel Earrings  Tassel earrings are all the rage now, and I love the colors in these.  Plus, they are only $6.90, so you can’t beat the price!

7 //  Soft Flutter Tee  The short flutter sleeves on this tee had me at hello.  I own this tee in white and it is so soft and comfortable with a great fit.  Plus, it’s less than $25.

8 //  Pug Beach Towel  I couldn’t resist adding this beach towel from Pottery Barn Teen because we just happen to have a pug.  And you can personalize this towel too!  It’s on sale right now for $16.99.

9 //  Gingham Melamine Dinner Plates  These gingham melamine dinner plates are perfect for outdoor dining!  And the black and white goes with most any decor.

10 //  Hardside Spinner Suitcase  This suitcase is smartly styled with faux leather trim, and includes double spinner wheels, a telescoping handle, and an integrated TSA lock.  If you don’t like the idea of a white suitcase, it also comes in brown.  And the best part is, it is currently half off the original price of $500.  So you can get it for $249.99, and if you use code MEMDAY, you can get another 20% off of that, making it $199.99.

11 //  Woven Leather Cylinder Baskets  This diamond weave leather basket with grommet details offers a luxurious and practical solution to storage around the house.  It would be great to toss in wet beach towels or flip flops.

12 //  Self Tan Dry Oil SPF 50  This is a gradual sunless tanner with an instant luminous skin finish.  I have been on a search for a natural sunless tanner and am so happy I found this one!  This Self Tan Dry Oil delivers a luxurious, instant bronze skin finish and a radiant, even skin tone. It builds your most natural-looking sunless tan with organic DHA, while delivering antiage benefits with precious marula, monoi, and neroli oils. It guards against the aging and burning effects of the sun with high factor broad-spectrum SPF 50. What it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates – Phthalates

13 //  Flat Sandals  A neutral flat sandals is a must have in my summer wardrobe.  Simply stated. the clean, uncluttered look of the Donddi flat sandals from Steve Madden bring a sleek sophistication to whatever you pair them with.

14 //  Black Maxi Dress  I love a simple black maxi dress for summer.  I have one that is starting to wear, and I think I am going to replace it with this one.  So easy to wear, as a bathing suit cover or daytime or night, you can dress this up or down.  You can even knot it at the bottom sometimes to give it a different look.

15 //  Pom Pom Straw Hat  I may be showing my age here, but the older I get, the more I like to wear a hat when I am out in the sun.  And this one is just the cutest with the pom poms, and the brim looks like it will bring you some shade.

16 //  Salty Round Beach Towel Whether you’re propped up at the pool or lounging at the beach, this striped beach towel makes a bold statement. The perfect finishing touch to your cabana look, this beach towel is crafted in 100% cotton and is featured in fun colors certain to turn heads.

17 //  Swingy Striped Tank Dress   A dress like this is so easy to wear for Summer, and it is flattering to most anyone.  This swingy striped dress is made of the softest, drapiest jersey in a superflattering, throw-on-and-go, A-line silhouette you’ll love.

18 //  Flamingo Pocket Tank  An embroidered flamingo peeks from the pocket of this soft cotton shell for a playfully tropical pop. And who can’t use a tank like this in their wardrobe?  I love with with a pair of shorts or a cute skirt.

19 //  Lotion Bag  How fun is this little bag?  Use it to hold lotion or wet swimsuits at the beach or as a cosmetic bag for travel.

20 //  Graphic Tee  A cute tee is an essential summer staple and I love the  screen-printed message of blissful self-acceptance, it  transforms this casual jersey T-shirt into a daring declaration.

22 //  Leopard Flip Flop  I view leopard print as a neutral, and they flip flops are perfect for summer!  They would be great at the beach, the pool, or anywhere else!

23 //  Circle Straw Crossbody Bag  The perfect summer bag that fits all the essentials (think keys, wallet, phone).  I really love this bag and I just might have to splurge on it.  So cute for summer, and the crossbody makes it great for travel too.

24 //  Summer Stripe Bag  I am a sucker for stripes, and I love the colors of this cute bag.  The Summer Stripe Duck Bag is a classic everyday canvas tote that will hold all your needs – including a 15” MacBook.  It also makes a fantastic beach or pool bag.
